Admittedly, a library isn’t exactly the background that’s become popular on a platform full of beach shots. Former Secretary of State and potential 2016er Hillary Clinton did a bit better. She recently tweeted out a selfie with Jimmy Kimmel.

Republican Gov. Chris Christie, also considering a bid for the White House, later instagrammed a #TBT (for readers from the 19th century, that’s “Throwback Thursday”) of himself and Biden. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., even joined Snapchat.

And then there are those who like to think of themselves as vertiable selfie pioneers like Georgia congressional candidate Allan Levene. On his website, Levene, who is vying for the U.S. House of Representatives from the state’s 11th Congressional district, recently bragged about a very specific selfie first: The first selfie taken halfway through a congressional debate in which he was a participant. True or not, Levene touted the pic in a press release, but didn’t bother posting it to social media. Nice try.

Unfortunately, like tweens, some congresspeople are prone to over-share.
